Elections 2018 are fast approaching. The political atmosphere is buzzing with campaigns of major political parties as well as drama and controversies. It’s not the calm before the storm, it’s the storm before the real storm engulfs the country.

During this time, you do not have to keep a keen interest in politics to be on top of the news. Every registered voter in Pakistan has the right to vote, which equally calls for our major concern towards what’s happening. Especially when it is the question of who to vote…

There’s one unusual candidate out there, we have not heard much about before…
